The Quote from the Amazon page:
Although the Sixties and Seventies are long gone, the lure of the popular music of then is still very strong. The great bands of that era are still incredibly popular in today's world and on nearly every record shelf, CD rack or MP3 library of a young Rock fan as well as of an actual 60's-70's "graduate", you can find albums by The Beatles, Pink Floyd or Led Zeppelin. However, if you think that said era can be summed up and reduced only to those bands, as good and as famous as they may be, you are mistaken. For every worldwide recognized band, there are dozens if not hundreds of bands which were not as lucky, and in many cases, unjustly so.
Meticulously researched, "Demons, Fairies & Wailing Guitars" covers the finest 100 obscured bands from all the corners of the world and from all shades of Rock music in 1968-1976: Progressive Rock, Psychedelia, Hard Rock, Blues Rock, Folk Rock, Singer-Songwriter, Krautrock and more. It also offers exclusive photos and interviews which add a personal touch to these often untold stories.
If you're a fan of 60's-70's Rock music – this is going to be your bible, your guide to the uncharted musical territories of the era.

A lot of very familiar names in it to regular forum dwellers but there are a handful I've never heard of before.
